Drivers of the Winds (Al-Dhaareyaat)
In the Name of Allah, the Merciful, the Most Merciful
By the winds which scatter dust, 1 Then by oath of those which carry the burdens. 2 and those speeding along with ease, 3 then by the distributors (angels), ordered; 4 surely what you are being warned against is true, 5 And verily the Requital is surely to befall. 6 By the heaven with its passages, 7 surely you are at variance (about the Hereafter); 8 From which only he turns who is turned away. 9 Doomed are the conjecturers 10 Those who (flounder) heedless in a flood of confusion: 11 They ask, "When is the Day of Recompense?" 12 On the Day of Judgment they will be punished by the fire 13 Taste your burning: this is that which ye sought to be hastened. 14 Indeed the pious are among Gardens and water springs. 15 Taking what their Lord gives them; surely they were before that, the doers of good. 16 They used to sleep but little in the night. 17 and would pray for forgiveness from their innermost hearts; 18 And the beggar and the destitute had a share in their wealth. 19 There are many Signs on earth for those of sure faith, 20 As also in your own selves: Will ye not then see? 21 In the sky is your provision and that which you are promised. 22 So by the Lord of heaven and earth, it is as true as your speech. 23
